Well i'm prolly selling my acura for $500. https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=240977

here are some cars i'm considering buying. What advice could any of you give me?

87 or 90 jaguar xj6. Can the british make good cars? they look okay i could cop one for less that $2k 6cyl

89-91 mercedes benz. i can get some nice benz for $3800 or less. german engineered. near flawless body and interior. about 160k miles. a few to choose from however most are automatic. some are diesel

85 bmw 187k miles $2500 735i OR a 1990 BMW gold color restored engine/tran leather interior 525i for about $3000

1989 lincoln Mark 7 silver color leather int 130k miles good condition $1600

1975 oldsmobile Omega 64k miles few missing interior peices but only $1000 !

90 Acura Legend body kit gold fairly new paint job 100k miles $3000 automatic good interior

1976 chevy caprice garage kept just needs some tires

1984 cadillac el dorado v8 140k miles black ext/blue interior $2000

1987 buick regal 80k miles $3500

93 volvo 850s 145k black on black NICE! 5 speed $1800

89 or 93 Saab 900 / 9000 CS beige color nice cars i think made in sweden

I've done a lot of research on these cars i'd probably slap them with new paint jobs and wheels and tune ups etc. what you think?

 

i vote for the
1984 cadillac el dorado v8 140k miles black ext/blue interior $2000 or the
1976 chevy caprice garage kept just needs some tires.
that's because im black

 

I don't have time to address the whole list, but PLEASE FOR THE LOVe OF GOd DON"T BUY THE JAGUAR!!!!!!

:edit: that caprice looks like a good bet to me too. h:

:edit:editr the volvo!

 

okay confirmed! the Brits don't know how the f*ck to make cars. I heard the jaguar cooling system is questionable. Plus 2 different jaguar owners/sellers keep calling me trying to coax me into buying 'em

yeah I'd like to learn what these 350 v8 engines are like. heard theres so many mods you can do to 'em its infinite. maybe they guzzle gas i don't know.

i looked at a '88 lincoln towncar today LOL the thing was HUGE! black flawless paint and started right up though sounded good. dude only wants $1k he's a mechanic but still the thing is practically a Limo! i passed

oh yeah i've been giving some volvos and saabs much consideration.

 

old jags are pieces of junk. the benz would be good, but if you have to fix anytthing dont expecty it to be cheap. go with the diesel if you can and convert it to a grease car. you can usually pic of the grease for free from local resteraunts who have to pay to get rid of it.

benz pretty much make only auto's. very few models come with standard on benz's. but their auto tranny's are rock solid and sealed for life.

 

wow.. thats a pretty shitty list of cars ur looking at ....

 

All of those suck quite a crapload of ass mate.

 

:werd: take the bus or something until you can save up some more dough. h:


If I had to choose out of those, I'd probably go with the volvo I guess.

 

doesnt ford own jag? that would explain the shittyness

 

I don't know about the caddy, is that one of the multiply displacement engines? if so, run as far away as possible.

Old Jaguars are good cars, just nobody wants to pay to maintain them, and those that do, don't sell them, as least not cheaply.

MB's are nice cars, I don't know of any manual trannies except for some 70's models. which you don't want, some have 0-60 times around 18+ secs.

Pre 1990 SAABs are nice if you like weird. Trust me on the weird thing, they are.
